Is Water-based Ink Better for the Environment?

Have you ever wondered about the quality of ink on packaging labels? At Healing Light Soy Candles®, we take this aspect seriously because it aligns with our commitment to eco-friendly practices and sustainability in every aspect of our handcrafted USA farmed soy candles.

Water-based ink is a wonderful eco-friendly alternative to traditional solvent-based inks, providing a much cleaner and safer option for both consumers and the environment at large. Made primarily from natural pigments and water, this innovative ink significantly reduces harmful emissions and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which in turn contributes to a healthier air quality for everyone. Additionally, it is biodegradable and non-toxic, making it perfectly safe for use in homes and businesses alike. Most companies choose solvent based ink because it is less expensive and does not fade when wet. At Healing Light Soy Candles®, we value the Earth, your home and well-being, so we opt for the water-based option that is better you, not our pocket book.

Using water-based ink on our labels enhances safety and sustainability throughout the entire lifecycle of our candles. We believe that every detail matters, right down to the labels that adorn our creations. This is just one more way we strive to bring you a luxury experience that is clean and friendly, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of our candles while remaining aligned with your values. We have also made our labels and highest quality USA soy wax easily removable with warm soap and water so that your restaurant quality jar can be repurposed when your candle has lived it’s best life.
